# AiXL for small business

We're AiXL, and we're a small business too. We build websites, apps, simple software and AI helpers for small businesses, charities and local firms. No jargon, a fixed price up front, and real people who pick up the phone.

## We're a small business too.

We know what it's like to be the boss, the bookkeeper and the IT department before lunch. So we only build things that save you time or bring in money. If something isn't worth doing, we'll tell you, even if it means less work for us.

## How it works

1. Free chat: Tell us what's slowing you down. 30 minutes, no cost, no obligation, no sales pitch.
2. A simple plan: A short, jargon-free plan with a fixed price and a date. No surprises later.
3. We build it: You see progress every week and can change your mind early, when it's cheap to.
4. Go live: We launch it with you and show you and your team how to use it.
5. We stay close: Need a change or have a question? You talk to the same people, not a call centre.

## Questions

**Do I need to know anything about technology?** No. That's our job. Tell us how your business works and what's getting in the way, and we'll suggest what would help, in words that make sense.

**How much will it cost?** It depends on what you need. Whatever it is, you get a fixed price in writing before any work starts, and the first chat is free. We'll also tell you about any running costs, like hosting, before you agree.

**How long does it take?** Most small projects go live in 1 to 12 weeks, depending on what you choose. You'll get a date in the plan before you commit to anything.

**What if I only need something small?** That's fine. Lots of our work is small, like a one-page website or a helper that answers a few common questions. Small jobs get the same care.

**Will you look after it after it goes live?** Yes. Our simple monthly care plans cover updates, backups, security and small changes, so you're never left on your own.

**Can you work with the tools I already use?** Usually, yes. Email, Xero, QuickBooks, Shopify, booking tools, WhatsApp. We connect to what you have rather than making you start again.

**Are you a big agency?** No, and that's the point. We're a small London team. You get senior people who care about your business, not a junior account manager.
